Welcome to Art Room 104! Well, I no longer teach in room 104...it's now room 309, but the heart is still there! I have now transitioned into teaching 7th-12th grades, and my focus is now moving towards Choice Based Learning in the art room. Join me on my journey as I enter new territory, experiment, and share how I fit it all into the realm of Common Core!

Artistic Staff Development: Monday Meeting
Today's artistic staff development was successful! No one complained...though there were some jokes about whose artwork might be worse than whose...and I found out we have quite a few artistic teachers on staff!
Me too! My principal started it off by saying how she wanted everyone to enjoy themselves, but also try to see how some of my content extends on what they teach in class. This morning I actually had a teacher come up to me to tell me she honestly wasn't looking forward to doing it. She said she enjoys art, but has to much stuff to do. She told me though that after she got into it, she really enjoyed it. A few others commented that it was simply a good way for everyone to relax together! A+!
: ) They just had to dig deep.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad it went well! :)
